# I think there is something to a launch operations role to enable PMM to deliver the val
## Claim
Many tech companies have Product Operation roles...but what about Launch Operations? If you're thinking 'but that's what PMM does', keep reading... I'm looking at Prod/dev orgs and seeing... - Program managers or product operation leads managing and coordinating the process to release.

## Mechanism
2) trying to established operational workflows and work PMM into the overall business operations.

## Conditions
Holds when: the operating context matches the post's stated frame (team shape, stage, tooling, buyer type).
Fails when: the practice is lifted into a different stage or buyer context without reworking the underlying mechanism.

## Evidence
> "I think there is something to a launch operations role to enable PMM to deliver the value the role was intended to deliver..."
